Explain what life was like for women, children and other civilians during WW1 ??

WWI was a war that affected civilians on an unprecedented scale. Civilians became a military target, with the economic impact of WWI, meaning that there were shortages of all produce, most importantly food supplies. Consequently, rationing of bread, tea, sugar and meat was introduced.

Women worked in munitions factories making bombs and missiles. This work could be dangerous. There were accidents and women got killed or injured. One explosive called phosphorus turned skin yellow and women in some factories were called 'canaries'.

Over 500,000 children lost their father in World War One. It was the biggest loss of fathers in modern British history. Children were taught about the war at school and had a strong awareness of what was going on. However, children were still expected to do their bit working, fundraising and helping at home
